you've got some coilovers, but i'm not sure what kind they are. and obviously a strut bar (idk the brand)

and you've got mesh over your intercooler... if you don't "need" it then it would look sick if you took it off and detailed the engine bay

Yeah, the strut brace looks to be an ebay "STi" wannabe. Strut bars don't really do anything so you could either sell it or keep it. And I don't recognize the suspension either so perhaps ebay again? If I were you, I would keep the mesh on the tmic so that your fins don't get bent by debris that goes in the hood scoop. But yeah, clean your engine bay.

From what I remember from the previous owner was the springs on the suspension are "Pink STi" They are pink in color and other than that I have no clue! This is a huge learning experience for me as well! The strut bar in the engine i guess helped him in his AutoX racing.

STi pinks are good springs. What plates are those then?

The gold things next to your strut bar are called camber plates. I was wondering what brand they were.
